The project - designed by Stantec along with Pelli Clarke Pelli - is located prominently on what is known locally as Science Hill. The 290,000 square foot building will include laboratory space including chemistry, physics, aquatics and insect labs, state-of-the-art imaging technology, a quantitative biology center, and a rooftop greenhouse as well as a 500-seat lecture hall. A new Plaza Pavilion at the end of the historic Hillhouse Avenue with adjacent landscaped plaza built above the physics labs and existing KBT library will act as the central social and gathering space for Science Hill.
